She was active in the Jewish and the general community and was past president of the Hanita Chapter of Pioneer Women, the Gimli Summer Club and was Chair of Womens Division of U.J.A. Lily dedicated herself to being a wife and mother. Lily was a woman with a lively curiosity and wide-ranging interests in literature, music, the arts and travel. The funeral was held at Shaarey Zedek Synagogue on Wellington Crescent, on Wednesday October 25 and she was buried at the Hebrew Sick Benefit Cemetery. Pallbearers were Harold Goldberg, Martin Goldberg, Avi Soudack, David Mozersky, Howard Chernick, David Greaves and Myron Schultz. She will be deeply missed by her family and all who knew her. We are greatly appreciative of the care she received both at home and at St. Boniface hospital during her year-long illness with cancer.
